Sinatra-Connected Nevada Casino to Reopen in 2015

Sat, Dec 20, 2014

The Cal Neva casino, once owned by the legendary Frank Sinatra, but closed since last year, will reopen next year on Sinatra’s 100th birthday, owners announced last week.

A casino once owned by Frank Sinatra will reopen on his 100th birthday in 2015. Originally the owners of the Cal Neva casino in North Lake Tahoe planned to reopen the casino on Sinatra’s 99th birthday, but pushed it back due to financial and construction issues.

The casino was originally built in 1926 and owned by the legendary crooner in the 1960s, during the heyday of Sinatra’s “Rat Pack.” He lost his license when a known mob figure was seen frequenting the casino. It closed about a year ago.

Criswell Radovan LLC, an investment firm, purchased it last year. It plans to spend $49 million to reopen the facility.
